For those of you looking for a cheery holiday fashion accessory, this hat is the answer. What it lacks in warmth (compared to my Snow Country Ski Hat), it makes up for in style and texture! It’s pleasantly slouchy, has a nice big brim, and fluffy pom-poms (because pom-poms make everything better--well almost).
This crochet pattern is available for free on my website or you can download it here as a print-optimized, ad-free PDF for your convenience.
If you are set on using this for the ski slopes or outdoor hiking, adding a lining would make this work for those truly cold conditions.
